מזג האוויר בסובה בדצמבר

Nadi-forum threads on December weather are consistent that the wet season's arrival doesn't mean constant rain - the more typical pattern is a sunny morning followed by an afternoon or evening shower or thunderstorm, hit-or-miss day to day but rarely a full washout across a whole trip. Posters note the western side of the main island, where Nadi and Denarau sit, runs meaningfully drier than the north and east coasts, and the outer islands generally see less rain than the mainland regardless of season. December also sits inside cyclone season, running November through April, which regulars flag as worth monitoring even though most Decembers pass without a direct impact. Despite the wetter, riskier calendar slot, the month remains genuinely popular - many resorts booked out months ahead for the holiday stretch. The record: 31.8C days feeling like a punishing 38C, 23.1C nights, a notably high 255mm across 15.2 days, 83 percent humidity, a 29.9C sea and 10.1 hours of sun.

Forum posters describe February as one of Fiji's hottest, most humid months, with daily highs in the mid-to-upper 80sF, sitting within the wet season that runs November through March. Posters specifically single out Suva as probably one of the toughest spots in Fiji for weather, with rain almost daily - anywhere from an hour or two to entire days lost to it. Posters note the wet season does bring one real upside: lower resort rates as the off-peak discount kicks in. Posters are consistent that ocean water stays warm and inviting year-round regardless of the rain, and recommend booking air-conditioned accommodation given the heat and humidity. Posters generally rate February as hot, humid and Fiji's most rain-affected stretch, especially pronounced in Suva itself, though cheaper rates and warm water remain real upsides.

Forum posters are candid that Suva sits on the wetter side of Fiji and is genuinely one of the rainier spots on the islands - 'it will rain in Suva, it always has and it always will,' as one poster put it, with June-August named as the roughest stretch of the year for that side of the country specifically. That said, broader Fiji forum consensus describes August overall as pleasant - not too hot, daytime around 24-28C with nights cooling to the high-teens/low-20sC, stretches of sunny days interspersed with overcast periods that can last a day or two. Posters recommend basing expectations for Suva itself on its reputation as one of the less reliably sunny parts of Fiji, while treating nearby islands and the western Coral Coast as the more consistently dry alternative for the same month.
